Peter van Vuuren is the Founder and CEO of King Investments Group of Companies. As the visionary leader of the organization, he oversees all day-to-day operations and guides the company’s long-term strategic direction.

Originally from South Africa, Peter has carried an entrepreneurial spirit since his school years. After graduating, he founded a wholesale chicken and egg distribution business that soon led to a major opportunity with the second-largest egg producer in the country. In his management role, Peter expanded the company’s marketing reach and distribution network so effectively that additional farms had to be acquired to keep up with rapidly increasing demand. During this time, he advanced his education by studying International Marketing Management and later completed his MBA at UNISA.

​

Peter then joined a dry-cleaning company as General Manager and shareholder. Under his leadership, the company experienced significant expansion, growing to 24 retail locations, securing 435 hotel and commercial contracts, and operating two factories to sustain its output. He later joined King Financial in Cape Town, where he played a key role in scaling the billion-dollar firm. King Financial specialized in tailored investment opportunities that included storage facilities, retail developments, and commercial building investments.

​

Seeking greater opportunity and driven by a commitment to personal and professional growth, Peter relocated to the United States. There, he launched a construction company while continuing his advocacy in the fight against human trafficking—an issue he is deeply passionate about. Peter and his wife also acquired farmland in Florida, developing a growing agricultural operation. His passion for farming quickly deepened, inspiring him to merge his business expertise with his love for agriculture. This vision ultimately evolved into creating opportunities for others to participate in the growth and profitability of sustainable farmland investments.

Over the years, Peter has contributed to the development and expansion of organizations across multiple industries—nonprofit, retail, restaurant and entertainment, financial services, and global investment sectors—both in the United States and internationally.
